All you need to do is look at any of the 50+ scientific citations on the Wiki page on Smallpox to know this isn't true. The last case of "wild" smallpox was over 30 years ago. The cases that have occurred since then have all been connected to vaccinations or laboratory research stock. So a) smallpox HASN'T started to reoccur, and b) the occasional case that is occurring couldn't possibly be more virulent than the original strain since it is the same stock being used for vaccinations that has caused the occasional artificial case.
While there is a thing called Polio relapse, where people who had polio have something called Post Polio Syndrome decades later, this isn't related to the vaccine either, and this is not considered a relapse or reinfection by any of the researchers on the topic

The same with polio.
